Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how CloudInvites ("we", "us", and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at cloudinvites.wedding and its subdomains. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

2. Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Websites to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies.

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for you to browse the website and use its core features. For CloudInvites, this includes:
  • Session cookies required by Ruby on Rails to keep Couples logged into their dashboards.
  • CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery) protection tokens to ensure secure form submissions.
  • Authentication states for Guests logging in via unique PINs or tokens to access specific RSVP forms and shared planning views.
• Performance and Analytics Cookies: We may use these cookies to collect information about how visitors use our marketing site (e.g., which pages are visited most often). This data helps us optimize the site and make it easier to navigate.

3. Third-Party Cookies

In some special cases, we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties. The following section details which third party cookies you might encounter through this site:

• PayMongo: When you upgrade your subscription or process a payment, our payment provider (PayMongo) may set cookies essential for securely processing your transaction and preventing fraud.
• Cloudflare: We use Cloudflare to secure our infrastructure and serve assets quickly. Cloudflare may place a strictly necessary cookie to detect malicious visitors and maintain application security.

4. How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in your web browser. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

Please note that if you choose to reject strictly necessary cookies, you may still use our website, but your access to some functionality and areas of our website (such as logging into your dashboard or RSVPing to an event) may be severely restricted or broken.
